Time to Taste - Parched Grapes that Quench you Thirst!

 

This time we try a dried grape wine - Appassimento - from Valpolicella in the Veneto region of Northern Italy. This 2017 Tommasi Arele Trevenzie IGT is $27 but is sooooo food friendly! 

Time to Taste an Affordable Super Tuscan!

 

This time we try a very affordable ($17) red blend from Tuscany - and it is tasty - especially with food!  I would definitely give this 2016 Monte Antico Toscano IGT a try!

Time to Taste a Light, Bright Pinot Grigio Delight!

 

This time we try a Pinot Grigio from Northern Italy. This one was surprisingly tasty and just might change my opinion on Pinot Grigio!  It’s a 2020 Sun Goddess Pinot Grigio Ramato.

Time to Taste Sunshine in a Bottle!

 

How is this ’Sunshine in a Bottle’? Check out the tasting video for this food-friendly  Italian white blend from Orvieto, Umbria, Italy. 

Ruffino is a larger wine producer that produces this white blend of four grapes from the Orvieto DOC, the best area of Umbria.  This is a 2020 Ruffino Orvieto Classico.

Time to Taste some Killer Good Rioja!

 

This Spanish Rioja Reserva has wonderful aromas and a smooth, flavourful palate. It is definitely worth checking out!

Aloha to Rioja!

This week we taste a 2016 Spanish Rioja from Campo Viejo. How does this scrumptious sipper perform? Check out the video!

This 2016 Campo Viejo Reserva is just $19.

Time to Taste a Marvellous Monastrell

This  Spanish red is just 13 bucks! And it's great!  Monastrell, also know as Mourvèdre, is a great grape for Cab Sauv drinkers as it can have a lot of tannins, acidity and flavour! This wine is a 2020 Finca La Solana Las Hermanas Monastrell.
